'Twas the Night Before Christmas Presented by Trillium Dance Studios Inspired by Clement C. Moore's classic poem, Act 1 of 'Twas the Night Before Christmas brings to life the verses of this famous holiday script, while Act 2, written and choreographed by Artistic Director Erin McKeever, tells her story of what "really" happened that night before Christmas... when a mischievous, yet lovable Pirate King and his wily crew steal the golden star from atop the Christmas tree. Will the Ballerina Doll and her entourage of beloved holiday characters save Christmas? Join us as Trillium's whimsical holiday ballet unfolds, danced by and for kids of all ages.
